MTV Music is an Italian pay television music channel operated by Paramount Networks EMEAA.

The channel was launched as a free-to-air network on Italy DTT on 17 May 2010 and on Sky Italia on 18 October 2010. It was renamed to MTV Music on 1 March 2011.[1][2][3]

The main MTV station had been sold to Sky Italia on August 1, 2015 in Italy (DTT only). It had no effect on MTV Music, as this TV station was not sold and continues to be a Paramount property.
